«The Fallers threaten not only human settlers, but also the very existence of the universe. Hamilton expertly interleaves disparate storylines»

Guardian

«Another stonkingly large and addictive SF thriller from one of the genre’s leading exponents. Huge cast, enormous canvas, big ideas – mega in every way.»

Daily Mail

«Peter Hamilton’s new novel stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the Culture books of Iain Banks and the Kefahuchi Tract saga of M. John Harrison . . . a book that is paradoxically both old-school and totally au courant: the best of two worlds»

Locus Magazine

«A satisfying and well-oiled story, with potential for more epic adventure to come»

Booklist

«If you like your science fiction in the shape of epic, sprawling, interstellar space opera things can’t get much better than with new novel by everyone’s favourite Peter F. Hamilton . . . Quite simply, The Abyss Beyond Dreams is Hamilton’s love letter to his readers. It’s set in everyone’s favourite universe and it has everything you’d expect from Peter F. Hamilton’s book – epic scope, engaging story and twists to die for»

«Quite simply, this is a novel whose world-building and story have been masterfully interwoven with previous Commonwealth novels, as well as one that stands alone in delivering a complex and immersive narrative, and shows a master at the top of his game. It’s intelligent and gripping, action-packed and emotional, but most of all it’s a shining example of what science fiction has to offer. I can’t recommend this novel highly enough»
